Thanks for gathering input, Christine. Good luck to you and the Planning Committee. 1) A big topic that I think is bubbling up on many campuses would be the development of policies around the use of social media. This may be too specific for what you're looking for, but with the scarcity of information on this, it might be helpful to have some information about this with all its complexity. 2) In that line of thinking, perhaps something about the ACA and its possible impact on HEIs' policies might be of interest. 3) And a more general interest might be- how to work (enter, develop, create) policies in a "policy-less" institution. This could be creating the whole structure of development of policies, but also might be helpful on how to get the buy-in and the "pay attention" to policies in a place that relied on "that's what we've always done, why do we need policies." Hope this helps.

Dear Colleagues, The 2014 ACUPA Conference Planning Committee is springing into action to prepare for our partnership with EACUBO’s Annual Meeting ( http://www.eacubo.org/programs-and-events/annual-meeting.html ) October 19 – 22 in Orlando. The Presentation Subcommittee will issue a formal Call for Proposals next week, but before we do that, we would like to ask each of you what topics, specific or general, you really want to hear about. Your responses will help the Planning Committee select the best presentations possible for our conference Please reply to post your wish list in this forum. What policy topics, processes, or emerging issues do you wish we could discuss (and maybe solve once and for all)? If you would prefer for your suggestions to go directly to me rather than the entire listserv, just respond to [email protected] and your ideas will still be counted. Thanks for sharing your thoughts!
